Would you be interested in selling the box mate?

How much. Blew 3rd gear in mines last night.

Your 99 box of course not your blown one []

Mines is a 99 uk turbo.

Cheers

if you could find the gearbox code/numbers located on your box i can see if they are a match for you!!!

box been whining off throttle for a while...crunshes from time to time going into 5th for some reason....but gave up the ghost big time tonite.....lost third to start with but by the time i got near to home it jammed in second at roundabout hahaha

was told the ap 6 paddle clutch would transfer the weak point!!!!

too many 6grand launches hahaha

diff not too clever either....cant seem to find any info on whats best to replace it with sti 4-5 are strongest standard ones is all i can find!!

but cant find info on how to match gearbox numbers/codes to diffs

hope all goes well with your car mate!!!....i know from experiance how it feels to run the shells!!

hope the warranty covers you

  take care lads.......regards andy......

[andrew_lally]

Mr Adonis, the only thing that will survive your infamous 6000 rpm launches is something like a PPG gearset, cost about £2000.  Maybe a 6 speed UK or JDM box and diff combo would be next on the list at about £1500.  The STI Version 5 and 6 are the strongest classic boxes and maybe one from a STI RA would suit your needs with its DCCD trickery, cost about £1000.  Cheapest route to get you back on the road is a replacment phase 1 box at about 350 -500 notes and you will need to match the code that is printed next to the starter motor on the white strip of plastic.

Well done on the result today as 310 is awesome.....hats off sir!!!

cheers squirrell....info about gearbox codes is very limited!!!

i was well chuffed with the 310 mate.....shocked infact

on the road it hits the fuel cut defender around 5500-6000 rpm most o the time

but peak bhp was way up at 7000rpm

so when it managed to get a reading on rollers without hitting the dreaded FCD the true potential was shown

gearbox on way....as is the electronic gadgetry to raise the fuel cut defender limit slighly...boost controller getting fitted !!

so a usable 300 should be on the cards woohoo

  see you all at the track
